Small pistol at 9" (230mm)
Razor Blade at 3" ( 75mm)
Hat Pin at 1" (100 mm)
486 Processor at 4" (100 mm)

Scan Rate: 3" to @4" (75-600 mm) per second

Received FAA's Highest Overall Performance Rating for a US Manufactured Handheld Detector Source: FAA Report: "Screening with Hand-Held Metal Detectors." DOT/FAA/CT-95/49 Report Suitable For A Diverse Range Of Security Applications

User adjustable sensitivity enables the Model 1000 to be used with optimum efficiency on a range of security applications. When screening for hand guns the sensitivity can be lowered to avoid unwanted alarms from smaller harmless objects. The scanners high sensitivity allows a search to be non obtrusive and hands-off; minimizing physical contact with the subject and possible human relations or liability problems.

The Model 1000's high sensitivity is invaluable in loss prevention applications where small metal objects must be protected. Jewelry, electronic products, computer processors, tools, etc. can be detected.

Ergonomic Design Reduces Operator Fatigue
The Lightweight construction, comfortable grip, large scanning surface, tight detection pattern, fast detection circuitry, desensitizing feature and ergonomic design all contribute to a higher efficiency screening and reduced operator fatigue.

Specification

Dimensions: Length 16" (406 mm)

Width 3 1/16" (78 mm)
Height 1 3/8" (35 mm)

Weight: 14 ounces (400 grams)

Electronics: The advanced automatic tuning transmit/receive circuitry is housed in a rugged high impact ABS plastic case and detects all metals and alloys. The unit's de-sensitivity feature and tight detection pattern help reduce false alarms when screening at ankle height in the vicinity of floors with rebar. Sensitivity adjustments are made through a screw driver access hole in the casing, thus reducing the potential for tampering or inadvertent adjustment.

Alarm Indicators: High efficiency peizo electric beeper, silent mode vibration alarm and LED visual indicator. Indicators remain activated while search coil passes over metal. The duration of the alarm is indicative of the size object.

Power Requirement: Unit requires standard 9V disposable alkaline battery or optional NiCad rechargeable cell. Typical disposable battery life is 80 hours. Unit consumes 5 mA quiescent current and a maximum of 35 mA when audio and visual alarms are activated.

Low Battery Warning: Low voltage conditions are indicated when LED lamp flashes and a steady state beeper tone changes to a warbling sound.

Warranty: 2 years parts and labor

*Detects smuggled metal contraband in laundry, trash bags, and parcels
*Advanced microprocessor controlled technology
*Unique full-surround sensor for total detection
*Adjustable, repeatable sensitivity
*Patent Pending

The Contra/MediScan metal detector has been developed to offer a fast, reliable, and inexpensive way to scan laundry, trash bags, and parcels for prohibited or stolen metal items. These items may be screened on entry to prevent the introduction of an illicit metal object or upon exit to prevent the loss/theft of a metal item. The screening procedure is fast and easy.

Contra/MediScan alarms when a metal object is passed through it. A variable sensitivity adjustment and advanced high discrimination microprocessor controlled electronics enable the operator to specify the size and type of metal objects that must be detected.

The Contra/MediScan features two user selectable detection modes. The all metal mode allows all types of metal to be detected. The second control option detects only stainless steel or ferrous objects. This allows objects such as silverware to be detected while ignoring other metal objects such as aluminum cans, etc.

Specifications:

* Microprocessor controlled with unique full-surround detection sensor
* All metal and stainless steel / ferrous discrimination programs
* Adjustable sensitivity control
* Operates from low voltage 110V/220 VAC wall adapter
* Dimensions: 34.5 inches (876 mm) high by 30.5 inches (775 mm) in diameter
* Weight: 50 lb. (22.7 Kg)

Standard Ranger (BOSS) Body Oriface Security Scanner (Scroll down for Big Boss)

A Safe Non-Intrusive Method of Detecting Objects Concealed in Body Cavities

B.O.S.S. is a unique, fast, non-intrusive, inexpensive, high sensitivity detector designed to detect metal objects hidden in body cavities. It is commonly used in corrections facilities to scan inmates for weapons and contraband objects hidden in anal, vaginal, oral and nasal cavities. At some sites visitors are also screened.

B.O.S.S. has undergone extensive testing at US State and Federal Corrections facilities and has received considerable attention in both the electronic and print media.

Typical objects being targeted are razor blades, handcuff keys, paper clips, knives, shanks and tools. It also detects metal foils and objects such as detonator caps. Razor blades are of particular concern as they are difficult to detect in all orientations with walk-through devices. It has even been reported that prisoners are known to cut pouches in the insides of their cheeks to conceal razor blades.

Helps to Eliminate Stabbings and Slashings

B.O.S.S. minimizes the need for unpleasant intrusive manual searches and increases the safety of officers and inmates. Because the measurement method is non-intrusive, it eliminates the liability and safety issues associated with manual searches. It also saves the time and expense involved in X-raying a person suspected of concealing contraband metal.

B.O.S.S. can be used to conduct a 100% inspection of inmates being inducted into a facility, for cell block inspections and searches of inmates being transported. Scanning inmates prior to transportation enhances security by insuring that they have no handcuff keys or paper clips that could aid an escape.

B.O.S.S. is a powerful deterrent as it helps to limit the number of weapons that enter and circulate throughout the inmate population. In a recent A&E Channel T.V. documentary, officials from New York City's Rikers Island Jail reported that aggressive security measures, which include screening with B.O.S.S., have cut inmate gang related violence by 90%. Prisoners caught with weapons are being prosecuted.

In an article "Prisoners' Weapons No Match for BOSS Chair" by Jim Krane, an APB News Staff Writer (jimk@apbnews.com) reported that in 1990, 1,500 stabbings and slashing occurred in New York City's Jails. Last year this figure dropped to 229. He reported that Mr. Tom Antenen, a spokesman for New York City Department of Corrections, stated that B.O.S.S. is a component of the city's crack down on prisoner violence which had been spiraling out of control. The article also refers to a incident in Texas where a woman was caught concealing eighteen razor blades. At this same unit another woman was found to be concealing a needle.

The pictures below show the type of object being targeted.

Knives built into a pen and lipstick holder.

Mobility Increases the Deterrence Factor

B.O.S.S. is equipped with wheels, allowing it to be moved to cell blocks and other locations for snap inspections. It can be moved by tilting the chair backwards and wheeling it like a wheelbarrow.

Fast, Safe, Efficient Screening

The screening procedure is safe, fast and efficient. The person being screened simply positions his / her chin near the oral sensor and then sits momentarily in the chair. The entire procedure takes just a few seconds. Magnetic field sensors housed in the seat of the chair and the oral sensor assembly automatically interrogate for the presence of metal. Audio and visual alarms are activated when metal is carried into the magnetic field. An alarm remains activated for the duration that an object is within the low intensity magnetic field.

A Unique Measurement Technique

The measurement method is unique in so much that it detects ferrous and non-ferrous objects that are either stationary or moving. Eddy current field detection sensors are installed within the chair assembly. The geometry of the chair and oral sensor configuration provides tight magnetic coupling between the sensor and a concealed metal object. Because of the excellent geometry and the combination of dynamic and non-motion detection techniques, small objects are more reliably detected than with a walk-through or hand held detector. In a recent article in the National Law Enforcement and Corrections Technology Center's 'TECH beat magazine" it was reported that B.O.S.S. detected contraband objects and shrapnel undetected by hand held scanning.
